Taiwan is one of the most "foodie countries" we've ever visited. It seemed as if not a moment went by when we passed by appetizing food on streets, people eating, and food courts. After experiencing the World's fastest elevator in Taipei 101, MarineSteve and I had to visit yet another stupendous food court in the building's lower level although it fell a teensy bit short of Siam Paragon in Bangkok. Feel free to "weigh in" on that subject...yuck, yuck...
Yum-o. And then a fast run through upmarket Jason's Supermarket which adjoins the food court. If The Landis Hotel had only been closer to this food court, I could have spent a day eating my way through there. I truthfully enjoyed the food courts more than the crowded Night Markets; where there were places to sit and more foods to my taste. Snake meat just doesn't rock my socks off (not that I intend to taste snake, even if it does taste like chicken) and how much boar sausage on a stick can one eat?

The new uniforms for Taiwanese security forces look like something torn from the page of the Necronomicon. These bulletproof facemasks would make the perfect Halloween costume. Or villain for the next Friday the 13th movie. So why the terrifying nightmare uniforms? Well, that's because China is right next door and has vowed to bring the island under mainland rule, by force if necessary. So maybe the Republic of China is trying its hand at psychological warfare. Or preparing to make dystopian future scifi/horror movies.

Upon arriving in Taipei, Joanne-Marie checks into the quaint, airline-themed "Airline Inn" (http://www.airlineinn.com/) in Ximending. It's convenient location makes it a very good choice for shopaholics and those who want to get a taste of Taipei's famous street foods.
Just across the road, the next stop was Vespa Ximending (http://tw.vespa.com/), a flagship store that not only sells scooters, but is also home to Vespa enthusiasts all around Taipei. There's a 50s styled cafe, artworks and photographs reminiscent of days where Vespa first shot to fame in Italy. The outlet also sold memorabilia and various Vespa accessories like keychains, stickers, sunglasses, helmets, and nearly every item you can think of that screams Vespa Lifestyle.

(TripReport #4) Here's a short video of my flight from TaiwanTaoyuan (TPE/RCTP) to Hong Kong International (HKG/VHHH) in an EVA Air 747-400 (Registration B16409). The plane is unusual among 747-400s in that it's one of the 'combi' aircraft; the main cabin of the plane in shared between passengers (in the front) and cargo (in the back). What made this flight so neat was that, whereas usually you have to fly first or business class to sit in the front section of a 747, I was able to sit just one row from the nose cone in the equivalent of an economy plus seat! In the video you'll see all of the 'first floor' cabin (up to the wall separating the cargo from the passengers), some pictures of the plane from outside, and views of the scenery that we pass (Taiwan and Guangdong province). Enjoy!

Unlike the usual three-star hotels that MarineSteve and I stay in while traveling, our trip through Taiwan incorporated five and four-star hotels; what a treat! Offering luxurious accommodations in 209 rooms, it is in the Zhongshan area on Minquan EastRoad. The elegantly decorated guest rooms receive a free newspaper daily, fruit baskets, unlimited bottled water and had a DVD player, LCD television and marble, designer bathrooms.
Gigantic breakfast buffets changed items daily and the supremely helpful staff was always nearby. The Landis has several restaurants: Paris1930 is considered Taipei's best French restaurant; Tien Hsiang Lo serves typical Hangzhou-style cuisine, and La Brasserie which usually is the all-day dining venue was closed for renovation.
The Landis Hotel deserves every one of its five stars and I give it a BIG thumbs up!

Yeliu is a cape of about 1,700 meters long formed by Datun Mountain reaching into the sea. When overlooked from above, the place is like a giant turtle submerging into the sea. Thus, it is also called "Yeliu Turtle." Because the rock layer of seashore contains sandstone of limestone texture and it is subject to sea erosion, weathering and earth movements, there is particular scenery consisting of sea trenches/holes, candle shaped rocks, and pot shaped rocks. The place is divided into three sections. The first section has rocks like Queen's Head, Fairy's Shoe and Candle. The second section has rocks like Bean Curd, Dragon Head. The third section has sea-eroded caves, seal shaped rock, etc. The place is suitable for geological study and field research. In addition, there is a statue of Lin Tien Jane in commemoration of the person's bravery of scarifying own live for saving others. The monument describes in details the touching story. There is a marine world in Yeliu. The marine world is the first marine center in the country for exhibition of ocean evolution. It has the best sightseeing tunnel under sea, showing about 200 rare fish species and marine lives. The area of marine live specimen demonstrates many specimens of precious marine mammals and fish. It is very educational. There are excellent shows of whales, dolphins and seals, such as diving, ballet on water and other talent shows. There is a stadium with 3,500 seats. On holidays, the place attracts many visitors for the show. When you visit Yeliu, don't forget to visit sea world and feel the marine wanders.
How to reach there: ReachTamsui train station and then to Tamsui bus station, which is adjacent to the station. Catch 'North CoastShuttle Bus' to reach Yehliu Geopark.

Taipei

Taipei (/ˌtaɪˈpeɪ/, literally means "North of Tai(wan)"), officially known as Taipei City (Chinese:臺北市 or 台北市; pinyin:Táiběi Shì; Pe̍h-ōe-jī:Tâi-pak Chhī), is the capital city and a special municipality of Taiwan. Sitting at the northern tip of Taiwan, Taipei City is an enclave of the municipality of New Taipei City. It is about 25km (16mi) southwest of the northern port city Keelung. The city is mostly located on the Taipei Basin, an ancient lakebed bounded by the two relatively narrow valleys of the Keelung and Xindian rivers, which join to form the Tamsui River along the city's western border.

The city proper is home to an estimated population of 2,693,672 in 2009, forming the core part of the Taipei–Keelung metropolitan area which includes the nearby cities of New Taipei and Keelung with a population of 6,900,273, the 40th most-populous urban area in the world. The name "Taipei" can refer either to the whole metropolitan area or the city proper.

Taipei 101 was designed by C.Y. Lee and Partners and was constructed by Samsung C&T and KTRT Joint Venture . Construction on the 101-story tower started in 1999 and finished in 2004. The tower has served as an icon of modern Taiwan ever since its opening. The building was architecturally created as a symbol of the evolution of technology and Asian tradition. Its postmodernist approach to style incorporates traditional design elements and gives them modern treatments. The tower is designed to withstand typhoons and earthquakes. A multi-level shopping mall adjoining the tower houses hundreds of stores, restaurants and clubs. Fireworks launched from Taipei 101 feature prominently in international New Year's Eve broadcasts and the structure appears frequently in travel literature and international media.

Here’s documenting day 5-7 of my family trip to Taiwan. This video starts off with us walking through the Cingjing Skywalk where we got to see the beautiful view of the mountains!

The next day, we explored Shifen, Jiufen & finally, I brought my family to my favourite place in Taipei — Yeh Liu Geo Park.

Hourly Changing of Guard at Martyrs' Shrine, Taipei

http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com
Marine and I began another long day in Taipei at the impressive National Martyrs' Shrine that was architecturally inspired by the Hall of Supreme Harmony in Beijing. The shrine is dedicated to 390,000 soldiers killed in the service of their country during various wars.
There is an hourly ceremony for the changing of the honor guard which begins in front of the main gate and included on every sightseeing tour in Taipei. We were in time for the 9a ceremony, watched and carried on to the National Palace Museum. Unlike most museums in Mainland China, photography is not allowed inside. Unfortunately, more than massive crowds ruin any chance to enjoy the largest collection of priceless Chinese artifacts in the world. After queuing up in multiple lines to see the priceless jade cabbage and other important items, we left in disgust.
I suggest visiting the Museum after 3:00p when it is less crowded.

Container ship TS Taipei split on two and spilled fuel off Keelung, Taiwan

Container ship TS Taipei split on two and spilled fuel off Keelung, Taiwan

Container ship TS Taipei split on two and spilled fuel off Keelung, Taiwan

The grounded container ship TS Taipei split on two and spilled fuel off Keelung, Taiwan. The vessel suffered damages from the storm and hull cracked, spilling sufficient quantity of oil from ruptured bunker tanks. The ship’s wreck is on risk from capsizing, which can cause additional pollution from spillage of more heavy fuel and hazardous materials from the containers on board. The Taiwan’s Environmental Protection Department warned that such scenario can cause real environmental disaster for the region and sent emergency response team to the site of accident. two rescue boats, equipped with oil collection booms are working at the scene of pollution site, collecting the spilled oil.
TS Lines, which is the company operator of the troubled container ship TS Taipei, was working to pump out the fuel from the grounded vessel and negotiation salvage operations. However, during the last two days the operations were suspended due to storm and harsh weather. The vessel’s hull started cracking yesterday and during the storm, the vessel split on two and has immediate danger from capsizing.
The local authorities fear from spill of dangerous cargoes and chemicals from some of the containers, which are on board. The vessel had declared transportation of hazardous cargoes Class A, but exact type of chemicals were not disclosed. However, the pollution response team carry special chemicals treatment equipment in case of spill.
The container ship TS Taipei with 21 crew grounded off Taiwan on March 10 after losing propulsion power and pushed by storm to a rocky shallow. The container carrier suffered breaches into the aft part with danger of capsizing. All the crew members were evacuated by Coast Guard, but during the rescue operation one helicopter crashed and killed two rescuers.

Update: At least 19 people are confirmed dead after a TransAsia ATR 72-600 crashed into the Keelung River in New Taipei City, just east of the Taiwanese capital on Wednesday morning.
FlightGE235 had taken off only moments before the pilot transmitted a mayday call to report an engine flame out. Air traffic control lost contact with the plane at 10.55 a.m., Taiwan's state news agency CNA reported.
The French-made twin prop had taken off from Taipei's Songshan International Airport in the city's northeast, clipping an elevated bridge before it plunged into the water in the eastern Xizhi district just five minutes into its planned 55 minute journey to Taiwan's Kinmen Island just off the coast of mainland China.
A spokesperson from Taiwan's civil aviation authority told a press conference the aircraft was less than a year old and had been serviced on January 26.
Many of the 58 people on board, including five crew and two children were were able to exit the wreckage and swim to the river bank. Rescue crews were scrambled to the river and machinery had been deployed help emergency services cut into the fuselage and get to those still trapped inside the partially submerged plane. The rescue operation is ongoing.
The driver of a taxi struck by the plane at it clipped the bridge was unharmed.
Transasia, Taiwan's third-largest carrier, mainly operates domestic flights along with with a small number of if international routes. The carrier has a patchy safety record; this is its fourth fatal crash since the mid-1990s.

Taiwan is one of the most "foodie countries" we've ever visited. It seemed as if not a moment went by when we passed by appetizing food on streets, people eating, and food courts. After experiencing the World's fastest elevator in Taipei 101, MarineSteve and I had to visit yet another stupendous food court in the building's lower level although it fell a teensy bit short of Siam Paragon in Bangkok. Feel free to "weigh in" on that subject...yuck, yuck...
Yum-o. And then a fast run through upmarket Jason's Supermarket which adjoins the food court. If The Landis Hotel had only been closer to this food court, I could have spent a day eating my way through there. I truthfully enjoyed the food courts more than the crowded Night Markets; where there were places to sit and more foods to my taste. Snake meat just doesn't rock my socks off (not that I intend to taste snake, even if it does taste like chicken) and how much boar sausage on a stick can one eat?

SMITSalvage successfully removed the wreck of the TS Taipei offshore Shimen in the north of Taiwan. The container ship ran aground after an engine failure, broke in two and sank. For this complex project SMIT Salvage deployed its 1,000 ton floating sheerleg Cyclone and the semi-submersible pontoon Giant 6.

The new uniforms for Taiwanese security forces look like something torn from the page of the Necronomicon. These bulletproof facemasks would make the perfect Halloween costume. Or villain for the next Friday the 13th movie. So why the terrifying nightmare uniforms? Well, that's because China is right next door and has vowed to bring the island under mainland rule, by force if necessary. So maybe the Republic of China is trying its hand at psychological warfare. Or preparing to make dystopian future scifi/horror movies.

Taipei to Hong Kong in an EVA 747-400M (Combi) Trip Report -- one row from the nose!

(For a playlist of all my trip reports, visit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYtyZPMUWeI8tkUYI_hRsKc0BVEQHFzB3 )
(TripReport #4) Here's a short video of my flight from TaiwanTaoyuan (TPE/RCTP) to Hong Kong International (HKG/VHHH) in an EVA Air 747-400 (Registration B16409). The plane is unusual among 747-400s in that it's one of the 'combi' aircraft; the main cabin of the plane in shared between passengers (in the front) and cargo (in the back). What made this flight so neat was that, whereas usually you have to fly first or business class to sit in the front section of a 747, I was able to sit just one row from the nose cone in the equivalent of an economy plus seat! In the video you'll see all of the 'first floor' cabin (up to the wall separating the cargo from the passengers), some pictures of the plane from outside, and views of the scenery that we pass (Taiwan and Guangdong province). Enjoy!

Unlike the usual three-star hotels that MarineSteve and I stay in while traveling, our trip through Taiwan incorporated five and four-star hotels; what a treat! Offering luxurious accommodations in 209 rooms, it is in the Zhongshan area on Minquan EastRoad. The elegantly decorated guest rooms receive a free newspaper daily, fruit baskets, unlimited bottled water and had a DVD player, LCD television and marble, designer bathrooms.
Gigantic breakfast buffets changed items daily and the supremely helpful staff was always nearby. The Landis has several restaurants: Paris1930 is considered Taipei's best French restaurant; Tien Hsiang Lo serves typical Hangzhou-style cuisine, and La Brasserie which usually is the all-day dining venue was closed for renovation.
The Landis Hotel deserves every one of its five stars and I give it a BIG thumbs up!

Yeliu is a cape of about 1,700 meters long formed by Datun Mountain reaching into the sea. When overlooked from above, the place is like a giant turtle submerging into the sea. Thus, it is also called "Yeliu Turtle." Because the rock layer of seashore contains sandstone of limestone texture and it is subject to sea erosion, weathering and earth movements, there is particular scenery consisting of sea trenches/holes, candle shaped rocks, and pot shaped rocks. The place is divided into three sections. The first section has rocks like Queen's Head, Fairy's Shoe and Candle. The second section has rocks like Bean Curd, Dragon Head. The third section has sea-eroded caves, seal shaped rock, etc. The place is suitable for geological study and field research. In addition, there is a statue of Lin Tien Jane in commemoration of the person's bravery of scarifying own live for saving others. The monument describes in details the touching story. There is a marine world in Yeliu. The marine world is the first marine center in the country for exhibition of ocean evolution. It has the best sightseeing tunnel under sea, showing about 200 rare fish species and marine lives. The area of marine live specimen demonstrates many specimens of precious marine mammals and fish. It is very educational. There are excellent shows of whales, dolphins and seals, such as diving, ballet on water and other talent shows. There is a stadium with 3,500 seats. On holidays, the place attracts many visitors for the show. When you visit Yeliu, don't forget to visit sea world and feel the marine wanders.
How to reach there: ReachTamsui train station and then to Tamsui bus station, which is adjacent to the station. Catch 'North CoastShuttle Bus' to reach Yehliu Geopark.

Here’s documenting day 5-7 of my family trip to Taiwan. This video starts off with us walking through the Cingjing Skywalk where we got to see the beautiful view of the mountains!

Marine and I began another long day in Taipei at the impressive National Martyrs' Shrine that was architecturally inspired by the Hall of Supreme Harmony in Beijing. The shrine is dedicated to 390,000 soldiers killed in the service of their country during various wars.
There is an hourly ceremony for the changing of the honor guard which begins in front of the main gate and included on every sightseeing tour in Taipei. We were in time for the 9a ceremony, watched and carried on to the National Palace Museum. Unlike most museums in Mainland China, photography is not allowed inside. Unfortunately, more than massive crowds ruin any chance to enjoy the largest collection of priceless Chinese artifacts in the world. After queuing up in multiple lines to see the priceless jade cabbage and other important items, we left in disgust.
I suggest visiting the Museum after 3:00p when it is less crowded.

The grounded container ship TS Taipei split on two and spilled fuel off Keelung, Taiwan. The vessel suffered damages from the storm and hull cracked, spilling sufficient quantity of oil from ruptured bunker tanks. The ship’s wreck is on risk from capsizing, which can cause additional pollution from spillage of more heavy fuel and hazardous materials from the containers on board. The Taiwan’s Environmental Protection Department warned that such scenario can cause real environmental disaster for the region and sent emergency response team to the site of accident. two rescue boats, equipped with oil collection booms are working at the scene of pollution site, collecting the spilled oil.
TS Lines, which is the company operator of the troubled container ship TS Taipei, was working to pump out the fuel from the grounded vessel and negotiation salvage operations. However, during the last two days the operations were suspended due to storm and harsh weather. The vessel’s hull started cracking yesterday and during the storm, the vessel split on two and has immediate danger from capsizing.
The local authorities fear from spill of dangerous cargoes and chemicals from some of the containers, which are on board. The vessel had declared transportation of hazardous cargoes Class A, but exact type of chemicals were not disclosed. However, the pollution response team carry special chemicals treatment equipment in case of spill.
The container ship TS Taipei with 21 crew grounded off Taiwan on March 10 after losing propulsion power and pushed by storm to a rocky shallow. The container carrier suffered breaches into the aft part with danger of capsizing. All the crew members were evacuated by Coast Guard, but during the rescue operation one helicopter crashed and killed two rescuers.

Update: At least 19 people are confirmed dead after a TransAsia ATR 72-600 crashed into the Keelung River in New Taipei City, just east of the Taiwanese capital on Wednesday morning.
FlightGE235 had taken off only moments before the pilot transmitted a mayday call to report an engine flame out. Air traffic control lost contact with the plane at 10.55 a.m., Taiwan's state news agency CNA reported.
The French-made twin prop had taken off from Taipei's Songshan International Airport in the city's northeast, clipping an elevated bridge before it plunged into the water in the eastern Xizhi district just five minutes into its planned 55 minute journey to Taiwan's Kinmen Island just off the coast of mainland China.
A spokesperson from Taiwan's civil aviation authority told a press conference the aircraft was less than a year old and had been serviced on January 26.
Many of the 58 people on board, including five crew and two children were were able to exit the wreckage and swim to the river bank. Rescue crews were scrambled to the river and machinery had been deployed help emergency services cut into the fuselage and get to those still trapped inside the partially submerged plane. The rescue operation is ongoing.
The driver of a taxi struck by the plane at it clipped the bridge was unharmed.
Transasia, Taiwan's third-largest carrier, mainly operates domestic flights along with with a small number of if international routes. The carrier has a patchy safety record; this is its fourth fatal crash since the mid-1990s.

Best Things to do in Taipei - Overnight City Guide

I have always loved travelling.
I was lucky enough that from a young age, my parents took us all over the place, instilling in us a sense of larger spaces and broadened horizons. As I grew up, I became more independent in my travels and tried to figure out ways to do it more. From learning Spanish in Salamanca to purposefully getting 6 month summer jobs in places I wanted to explore further.
I became accustomed to getting lost and just wondering the streets, figuring out where would be the next good meal or when I would stumble onto some secret only locals whispered about. Getting lost was second nature back then. The only resources we had were over-read guide books that by the time you reached their recommendations, the waiters would push their best sellers down your throats.
So we h...

Taipei is the glittering capital of Taiwan, and one of the hottest travel destinations in all of Asia. When you visit this thriving city, you’ll find collections of stunning futuristic buildings interspersed with ancient Chinese temples and traditions.
One of these temples, Longshan, is located in Wanhua, the city’s oldest neighborhood. This is where you come to find good fortune, good health, and spiritual advice of all sorts. Once you’ve attained the guidance and wisdom you may not have realized you sought, head to 228 Peace Park, where you will find the memorial to the 1949 uprisings that eventually led to Taiwan’s independence.

I have always loved travelling.
I was lucky enough that from a young age, my parents took us all over the place, instilling in us a sense of larger spaces and broadened horizons. As I grew up, I became more independent in my travels and tried to figure out ways to do it more. From learning Spanish in Salamanca to purposefully getting 6 month summer jobs in places I wanted to explore further.
I became accustomed to getting lost and just wondering the streets, figuring out where would be the next good meal or when I would stumble onto some secret only locals whispered about. Getting lost was second nature back then. The only resources we had were over-read guide books that by the time you reached their recommendations, the waiters would push their best sellers down your throats.
So we had to resort to friend recommendations, what blog resources were up on the internet, guide books, conversations with strangers and your hotel concierge. Nowadays in our hyper connected world, everyone is an expert and there are so many sites that claim that this restaurants, trumps this bar, which is passé and now is considered touristy by pretty much everyone. Honestly, for me, good is good, so that’s what I base myself on.
For every family or friend trip we would take, I became the defacto research guide. Skimming through websites in English and in the language of destination, guide books, personal blogs, Instagram hashtags, geotags and anything else social media would allow me to delve into. Finally, being able to create a snap shot of the city, its districts and where to eat, sleep, drink, party or learn about the culture.
This is what Overnight is about.
For all of the information of the video, a map of the city and our Overnight guide.

https://www.expedia.com/Taipei.d180030.Destination-Travel-Guides
Taipei is the glittering capital of Taiwan, and one of the hottest travel destinations in all of Asia. When you visit this thriving city, you’ll find collections of stunning futuristic buildings interspersed with ancient Chinese temples and traditions.
One of these temples, Longshan, is located in Wanhua, the city’s oldest neighborhood. This is where you come to find good fortune, good health, and spiritual advice of all sorts. Once you’ve attained the guidance and wisdom you may not have realized you sought, head to 228 Peace Park, where you will find the memorial to the 1949 uprisings that eventually led to Taiwan’s independence.
Don’t worry about getting around the city; the Taipei Rapid Transit System, or MRT, will take you just about anywhere you need to go. Hop on it to pay a visit to the National Palace Museum, where you’ll find a giant collection of Chinese art and artifacts. There’s over half a million pieces related to ancient Chinese royalty here, and you can spend days exploring them all.
To plan out your next move, make your way to Taipei 101. This is one of the world’s tallest buildings, and you can soar to the top for a breathtaking view of the city and pick out the next place you’ll visit. Do you see Elephant Mountain? It’s not far from the downtown area, and it’s a short climb to the top for another look at Taipei. Keep up with the nature theme and make your stop the Taipei Zoo, where you’ll meet the largest menagerie of animals in Asia.
Cap off a day of Taipei sightseeing and adventure at Shilin Night Market, where you can join the locals in finding that next great meal or landing a spectacular bargain.

Taipei is the glittering capital of Taiwan, and one of the hottest travel destinations in all of Asia. When you visit this thriving city, you’ll find collections of stunning futuristic buildings interspersed with ancient Chinese temples and traditions.
One of these temples, Longshan, is located in Wanhua, the city’s oldest neighborhood. This is where you come to find good fortune, good health, and spiritual advice of all sorts. Once you’ve attained the guidance and wisdom you may not have realized you sought, head to 228 Peace Park, where you will find the memorial to the 1949 uprisings that eventually led to Taiwan’s independence.
Don’t worry about getting around the city; the Taipei Rapid Transit System, or MRT, will take you just about anywhere you need to go. Hop on it to pay a visit to the National Palace Museum, where you’ll find a giant collection of Chinese art and artifacts. There’s over half a million pieces related to ancient Chinese royalty here, and you can spend days exploring them all.

More about Taipei:
https://youtu.be/0MCWOmnF8k8
https://youtu.be/lr9EviyRcGo
Taipei, Taiwan is a super modern city with a deep-rooted culture that is becoming more and more popular as a gateway to East Asia and Southeast Asia.
It’s new express MRT service from Taoyuan International Airport, a 36 minute ride, will make it even more convenient for travellers, especially those on a short layover.
This short but important list of essential things you should know will help keep you on track with a smooth stay.
Although taxis are plentiful and relatively inexpensive compared with other big cities in East Asia the MRT is one of the best ways to get to most of the main sites and business centers of Taipei City.
The Nangang Exhibition Center where many conventions and shows are held is accessible by the blue and brown MRT lines. Neihou, where many tech industry businesses have their head office is also on the brown line, Xihu is one of the most convenient stops for quick and easy access.
Taipei 101 for the last 3.5 years has had it’s own MRT stop on the red line. This is where you’ll also find The InternationalConvention Center next to the Taipei 101Shopping Mall. It’s also in close proximity to Taipei City Hall and is apart of the Xinyi ShoppingDistrict, where you’ll find one of the largest selections of luxury goods stores in East Asia.
If you want to get more of a local perspective pick up an Easycard available at most MRT stations and register it online with Ubike, https://taipei.youbike.com.tw/en/index.php so you can have access to the city bikes that have stations across Taipei City and New Taipei City. Simply swipe your card next to the bike you want to rent and you’re ready to go. You can drop the bike off at any Ubike station. They’re almost always located near an MRT station.
In the video I mention briefly that the Taiwanese people are very friendly and helpful. It’s true! If you ever appear to be lost or confused while looking at a map you will in most cases immediately attract the attention of a local who will be pleased to help you find your way. That’s wny I said “get lost”, literally you can get lost while exploring this amazing city with it’s maze of alleyways, quiet cafes, food stalls and shops and not worry that you won’t have help getting back to your hotel.
Taipei and the rest of Taiwan is an extremely safe place to travel. There is literally no or very rare violent crime against tourists. Personal ownership of guns is banned. There has been reports of pick pocketing and petty theft, particularly in night markets and crowded places, but I think this is even rare now.
Enjoy your stay in Taipei and please feel free to leave any comments or questions. You can also message me on the Far East Adventure TravelFacebook page!

Taiwan street food is exciting and delicious. Enjoy this Taiwanese street food day trip tour!

On Day 10 in Taipei, Taiwan, Ying and I decided to take a day trip to Jiufen (of Jiu Fen) and on to Keelung City and have a day of eating Taiwanese street food. I’m extremely happy we had a chance to briefly visit both Jiufen and Keelung City. I’ll just quickly go over where and how we went from Taipei to Jiufen and then on to Keelung City using timecodes so you can come back to a location in the video easily if you want to.
0:38 How to Get from Taipei to Jiufen by Bus
Using the directly I read off Wikipedia travel guide, we took the Taipei Metro to Zhongxiao Fuxing Station, then took exit 1 (AndongStreet) and made an immediate u-turn, walked to the intersection and made a left, and then the bus stop was right there on the right hand side. We somehow arrived to the bus stop right as 1062 arrived and if Taiwan couldn’t make things any more easy and efficient we boarded the bus using our easy cards. The bus ride from Taipei central there to the small town of Jiufen took just over 1 hour, and we soon arrived in the touristy, but very beautiful and pleasant town of Jiufen - which is one of the biggest little tourist towns in Taiwan. You can choose to take a day trip to Jiufen from Taipei like we did, or you can even spend the night or a few nights there.
2:45 Taiwanese street food at Jiufen
Jiufen is a small little mountain town in Taiwan about 1 hour from Taipei with a great view of the ocean… and it’s turned into a major tourism destination. Although you can go there to do some shopping and buy some souvenirs, by far the main reason to go to Jiufen on a day trip is to eat as much Taiwanese street food and snacks as you can - and also there are plenty of sit-down restaurant you can eat at as well. Ying and I started our day of eating Taiwan street food by eating a plate of snails and a plate of grilled squid, both of which had quite a similar texture, and the flavor was delicious. After the snails and squid, I couldn’t resist having a Taiwanese tea egg, one of the most popular snacks. After walking around and taking loads of photos of the picturesque scenes around Jiufen, Ying and I stopped at a real restaurant to take a little break, cool down from the hot sun, and eat some more food - this time at a real restaurant. I tried a dish called three cup chicken, which was deliciously comforting. Another very famous food to eat in Jiufen is the sweet taro balls, which was pretty good.
12:24 How to get from Jiufen to Keelung City on Bus #788
After spending a few hours wandering around Jiufen, we took the bus from just up the road directly to Keelung City, one of the harbour towns in Taiwan, and about a 45 minute drive from Jiufen. The reason we wanted to go to Keelung City was to go to Keelung Miaokou Night Market, one of the most famous Taiwanese street food markets in Taiwan.
13:35 Street food at Keelung Miaokou Night Market
One of the most well known night markets in Taiwan is Keelung Miaokou Night Market, located right in Keelung City, and home to an abundance of delicious things to eat. I was actually still quite full from all the food we had already eaten in Jiufen, but I did manage to try a few things at the night market, and also I just really enjoyed the ambiance and atmosphere of the market. Ying and I luckily got a table and chairs at a small street food stall serving long finger sized dumplings, which were similar to gyoza. They were filled with minced pork and lots of green onions. Along with a plate of pickled cucumbers, and a plate of tofu, they were some of the best potsticker style dumplings I had on my entire trip to Taiwan. I also tried crab soup, and a famous street food called a Nutritious Sandwich.
Day 10 in Taiwan, and eating all sorts of Taiwanese street food snacks in both Jiufen and Keelung City was an excellent day trip.

One of the most well known night markets in Taiwan is Keelung Miaokou Night Market, located right in Keelung City, and home to an abundance of delicious things to eat. I was actually still quite full from all the food we had already eaten in Jiufen, but I did manage to try a few things at the night market, and also I just really enjoyed the ambiance and atmosphere of the market. Ying and I luckily got a table and chairs at a small street food stall serving long finger sized dumplings, which were similar to gyoza. They were filled with minced pork and lots of green onions. Along with a plate of pickled cucumbers, and a plate of tofu, they were some of the best potsticker style dumplings I had on my entire trip to Taiwan. I also tried crab soup, and a famous street food called a Nutritious Sandwich.
Day 10 in Taiwan, and eating all sorts of Taiwanese street food snacks in both Jiufen and Keelung City was an excellent day trip.

Travel in Taiwan (2015, 7/8)
By Rick Charette
"Qixingtan is a landscaped area immediately north of Hualien City. The name means “Seven StarLake,” but this is in fact a lovely arcing bay of crystalline blue-green Pacific waters, invariably made even more photo-friendly by local fishermen busy on their craft close inshore. The bay’s north end is the north terminus of a breezy seaside bike path stretching 21km to Nanbin Park on Hualien City’s south side. There are bike-rental stations near the bay’s north and south ends. Among the many other facilities are the StoneSculpture Park, Star WatchingPlaza, SunriseBuilding (Qixingtan’s sunrises are renowned), children’s playground, and seaside botanical garden. At bikeway-side are signboards explaining the seaside ecology, many with English. Another key draw is the terrific camera-perfect view of distant Qingshui Cliff."
"Shitiping. The name means “stone steps.” The dramatically terraced volcanic rock and raised-coral formations here form what looks like a staircase rising out to sea. The sea’s great erosive powers are in visually inspiring evidence here – all about are kettle holes and surging tide pools. The teeming marine life draws fishermen, shellfish collectors, and scuba divers. The distinctive ecology also features such oceanside-adapted plants as screw pine, cactus, and morning glory. There isn’t much shade, so bring water; there’s also ice cream, popsicles, and other cooling goodies available at the visitor center."
"Starchasers (as in “movie stars”) will be especially thrilled to learn about the existence of Niushan, where legendary director Martin Scorcese, Irish actor Liam Neeson, and other big names recently did shooting for the movie Silence, scheduled for release in 2016. What you’ll find at the end of a steep, narrow, long-grass-brushed road that leads off the here inland-and-upland coastal highway is a long and dramatically fetching arc beach bracketed by mountains that drop into the sea. The only buildings here are right behind the isolated beach – those of the Niushan Huting, a combination restaurant/café/bar/homestay/campground complex (www.rainbowiscoming.com/huting; Chinese), owned by members of the Amis tribe, Taiwan’s largest, and beside these a couple of tourist-draw thatch-roof structures from the faux village built for Silence (the rest were being torn down the day we visited). “Niushan” means “cow mountain”; to find the side-road entrance, look for the highway-side “Niushan Huting” sign on a totem pole capped with a steer-head sculpture (26.6km mark)."

Spectacular Taipei 101 Food Court

http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com
Taiwan is one of the most "foodie countries" we've ever visited. It seemed as if not a moment went by when we passed by appetizing food on streets, people eating, and food courts. After experiencing the World's fastest elevator in Taipei 101, MarineSteve and I had to visit yet another stupendous food court in the building's lower level although it fell a teensy bit short of Siam Paragon in Bangkok. Feel free to "weigh in" on that subject...yuck, yuck...
Yum-o. And then a fast run through upmarket Jason's Supermarket which adjoins the food court. If The Landis Hotel had only been closer to this food court, I could have spent a day eating my way through there. I truthfully enjoyed the food courts more than the crowded Night Markets; where there were places to sit and more foods to my taste. Snake meat just doesn't rock my socks off (not that I intend to taste snake, even if it does taste like chicken) and how much boar sausage on a stick can one eat?

SMIT Salvage - wreck removal of TS Taipei

SMITSalvage successfully removed the wreck of the TS Taipei offshore Shimen in the north of Taiwan. The container ship ran aground after an engine failure, broke in two and sank. For this complex project SMIT Salvage deployed its 1,000 ton floating sheerleg Cyclone and the semi-submersible pontoon Giant 6.

The new uniforms for Taiwanese security forces look like something torn from the page of the Necronomicon. These bulletproof facemasks would make the perfect Halloween costume. Or villain for the next Friday the 13th movie. So why the terrifying nightmare uniforms? Well, that's because China is right next door and has vowed to bring the island under mainland rule, by force if necessary. So maybe the Republic of China is trying its hand at psychological warfare. Or preparing to make dystopian future scifi/horror movies.

Upon arriving in Taipei, Joanne-Marie checks into the quaint, airline-themed "Airline Inn" (http://www.airlineinn.com/) in Ximending. It's convenient location makes it a very good choice for shopaholics and those who want to get a taste of Taipei's famous street foods.
Just across the road, the next stop was Vespa Ximending (http://tw.vespa.com/), a flagship store that not only sells scooters, but is also home to Vespa enthusiasts all around Taipei. There's a 50s styled cafe, artworks and photographs reminiscent of days where Vespa first shot to fame in Italy. The outlet also sold memorabilia and various Vespa accessories like keychains, stickers, sunglasses, helmets, and nearly every item you can think of that screams Vespa Lifestyle.

Taipei to Hong Kong in an EVA 747-400M (Combi) Trip Report -- one row from the nose!

(For a playlist of all my trip reports, visit https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLYtyZPMUWeI8tkUYI_hRsKc0BVEQHFzB3 )
(TripReport #4) Here's a short video of my flight from TaiwanTaoyuan (TPE/RCTP) to Hong Kong International (HKG/VHHH) in an EVA Air 747-400 (Registration B16409). The plane is unusual among 747-400s in that it's one of the 'combi' aircraft; the main cabin of the plane in shared between passengers (in the front) and cargo (in the back). What made this flight so neat was that, whereas usually you have to fly first or business class to sit in the front section of a 747, I was able to sit just one row from the nose cone in the equivalent of an economy plus seat! In the video you'll see all of the 'first floor' cabin (up to the wall separating the cargo from the passengers), some pictures of the plane from outside, and views of the scenery that we pass (Taiwan and Guangdong province). Enjoy!

The Charming and Luxurious Landis Hotel Taipei, Taiwan

http://www.TravelsWithSheila.com
Unlike the usual three-star hotels that MarineSteve and I stay in while traveling, our trip through Taiwan incorporated five and four-star hotels; what a treat! Offering luxurious accommodations in 209 rooms, it is in the Zhongshan area on Minquan EastRoad. The elegantly decorated guest rooms receive a free newspaper daily, fruit baskets, unlimited bottled water and had a DVD player, LCD television and marble, designer bathrooms.
Gigantic breakfast buffets changed items daily and the supremely helpful staff was always nearby. The Landis has several restaurants: Paris1930 is considered Taipei's best French restaurant; Tien Hsiang Lo serves typical Hangzhou-style cuisine, and La Brasserie which usually is the all-day dining venue was closed for renovation.
The Landis Hotel deserves every one of its five stars and I give it a BIG thumbs up!

Yehlui Geopark, New Taipei, Taiwan

Yeliu is a cape of about 1,700 meters long formed by Datun Mountain reaching into the sea. When overlooked from above, the place is like a giant turtle submerging into the sea. Thus, it is also called "Yeliu Turtle." Because the rock layer of seashore contains sandstone of limestone texture and it is subject to sea erosion, weathering and earth movements, there is particular scenery consisting of sea trenches/holes, candle shaped rocks, and pot shaped rocks. The place is divided into three sections. The first section has rocks like Queen's Head, Fairy's Shoe and Candle. The second section has rocks like Bean Curd, Dragon Head. The third section has sea-eroded caves, seal shaped rock, etc. The place is suitable for geological study and field research. In addition, there is a statue of Lin Tien Jane in commemoration of the person's bravery of scarifying own live for saving others. The monument describes in details the touching story. There is a marine world in Yeliu. The marine world is the first marine center in the country for exhibition of ocean evolution. It has the best sightseeing tunnel under sea, showing about 200 rare fish species and marine lives. The area of marine live specimen demonstrates many specimens of precious marine mammals and fish. It is very educational. There are excellent shows of whales, dolphins and seals, such as diving, ballet on water and other talent shows. There is a stadium with 3,500 seats. On holidays, the place attracts many visitors for the show. When you visit Yeliu, don't forget to visit sea world and feel the marine wanders.
How to reach there: ReachTamsui train station and then to Tamsui bus station, which is adjacent to the station. Catch 'North CoastShuttle Bus' to reach Yehliu Geopark.

Here’s documenting day 5-7 of my family trip to Taiwan. This video starts off with us walking through the Cingjing Skywalk where we got to see the beautiful view of the mountains! We then explored the Cingjing farm where we got to play with sheeps who ignored us because #grassismoreimportant haha! Later, we headed back to Taipei and shopped at the famous Ximending. The next day, we explored Shifen, Jiufen & finally, I brought my family to my favourite place in Taipei — Yeh Liu Geo Park.
